GIVING BIRTH TO NEW LAWS
In the time of President Marcos when Marshall Law and abusive authorities were rampant, laws were given by few self-proclaimed “Makamasang Politiko”. It was not hard for them to implement such policies because people on that time were like puppets played by their governmental ventriloquists.
But now, with enlightened men and women; who are now able to distinguish the RIGHT ONE from PROMINENT ONE, it will become the dilemma for the position of the government. They cannot create laws without objections and without villain.
This is not like the old society wherein people chose Fernando Poe Jr. rather than Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Our country is not a stage nor an action field for some guy who just wanted to served without skills.
With all the laws that had been passed, the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act of 2012 was most controversial that President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino had signed without handshakes and photographs. This law provides funds for contraceptives and hardens the knowledge about family planning. This also explains why the Catholic Bishop Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) are eager to settle the issue on public saying that the law destroys the sanctity of life and promotes abortion.
This just it. A never ending issue about human and their heinous sins. But the fact is the church cannot provides the public the needed attention to overcome the augmenting cases of malnutrition for kids, overpopulation, as well as being ignorant to the true unstoppable realities of our country.
This is not all about the bible.
On the other hand, laws like Sin Tax and Cybercrime are just waste of time. We live in a democratic country wherein freedom to speak and stand for yourself are always legal. In layman’s term, “chismis” with sense and freewill.
Let us not consider the government as the only institution which can help us to have better lives. Lawmakers are not our bosses. The true bosses here are ourselves. We should let be responsible for all the things that are happening in this country for we all live inside this one world that we are free to choose and live our own life — with or without laws.
